 Subject: two Wilf Carter songs
 Hi, Greg. . .
 Here are a couple of Wilf Carter (Montana Slim) songs that I particularly
 like.  I love Wilf's pure, simple yodeling style, and I've included the
 yodeling as I transcribed it from his recordings.
 
 YODELING MY BABIES TO SLEEP
 Wilf Carter (Montana Slim)
 peppy ² time
 
 I [G] want a sweet wife -- with blue eyes so bright
 That will [D7] stay by my fire-side at [G] night.
 Not one -- with a Sheik ev-'ry night of the week
 While I [D7] rock all my ba-bies to [G] sleep.
 She goes -- to the show-when the bright lights are low,
 She [D7] knows every cop on the [G] street.
 While [G] I'm left a-lone -- with the babies at home
 Just a [D7] yo-deling my ba-bies to [G] sleep.
 
 YODEL
 With a [D7] HO dee d'LEH-ee,
 [G] HI a'dee d'LEH-ee
 [D7] HO dee d'LEH-ee,
 [G] HI a'dee d'LEH-ee
 [C] HO a'deedel LEH-ee ee  [G] OO d'deedle-OH
 [D7] I yo-del my ba-bies to [G] sleep.
 
 If I [G] asked her to go -- with me to a show
 There's a [D7] girl-friend she prom-ised to [G] meet.
 I [G] get -- me own break-fast and work all day long
 While she [D7]dreams of the moon-light so [G] sweet.
 Think I'll get a div-orce - trade her off for a horse.
 What she's [D7] good for is more than I [G] know.
 Then the [G] ba-bies and I - could go riding by
 And [D7] smile at her each time we'd [G] meet.
 
 YODEL
 
 [G] As you all know - sweet ba-bies soon grow
 To [D7] join in the world happy [G] throng.
 But what tickles me is when those ba-bies, you see,
 Join [D7] me in my yo-deling [G] song.
 Can you picture me a ba-by on each knee
 When [D7] com-pany's a-round I feel [G] queer.
 My wife says I'm fine, handing her same old line
 "You're [D7] dar-ling, you're grand, oh, you're [G] dear".
 
 end with YODEL
